islanderbear84 608 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 His best monent was diving off the sideline in his flipflops, kicking them off to go bare foot to help break up the rammy at the end and then turn round to celebrate wildly at our fans!

MarzM 1,238 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I thought he played well tonight but he got his bell well and truly rung by Katic. Hopefully he'll be fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philiprfc 1,799 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 He did fine tonight but he's still not brave enough going forward for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Yes, did well. Best I've seen him play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueThunder 8,439 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 He didn’t do much wrong, but he still looked quite timid, and we looked more solid once Flanagan came on. I don’t think it was a coincidence we started getting on the front foot when the sub was made. Suddenly Tav could go forward more. Sorry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we looked more attacking as Tav felt he could go forward more. Regardless..... we are fucking through! Woo hooo! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedrick 8,048 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I thought he was gonny get his super powers bandage on tonight , I think it was two risky being down to 10 for any length of time treating him that’s why flanno came on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA1972 9,057 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Looked more assured tonight, would still like him to be a little more aggressive but he’s definitely improving and his delivery even with his right foot tonight was very good even if no one was getting on the end of them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,287 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 That free kick changed him. Even fellow teammates passed to him tonight! With confidence Borna will be good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookWorm 4,022 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Think he will settle in better with every game he plays and be the regular left back. I would defo play him Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgr1991 303 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Loved seeing him running on the pitch in his flip flops and his celebration with Katic at the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they jumped in the air together my immediate thought Katic was going to land on his bare foot. That'd just be the guys luck 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almacger 1,413 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Did he not take a really clever yellow card at one point in the second half? The Legia player was nearly free down the main stand side of the pitch but Barisic was clever to take him out and took the booking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbagan92 235 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 He was a lot better last night cut inside a few times and made bursting runs forward needs to do this more often. Also has trying to speed things up seems to always take a slow first touch which lets the defender get close. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamie 4,766 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 He can deliver a cracking ball with his left and his right foot. Not often you see that with a left back. I hope he cements his place, there is a really good player in there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMotor 2,208 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I don't think it is a coincidence that Barisic had one of his better matches when Davis probably had his best match since coming back. Davis came and made himself available almost every time the ball came left across the defence. Borna had two or three options for a pass instead of the usual pass up the line or go back to Katic. There was also a telling moment for me when he made a very quick-footed switch from his left to his right and crossed to the back post with very little back-lift. It was an excellent ball just lacking a runner and looked to be a product of some renewed confidence. The most encouraging part was that most of the crowd recognised it and rather than groaning that it came to nothing, the fans applauded and cheered him as he got back in position. He's not yet what we've been hoping he would be but he's showing signs of getting there in his last two or three performances.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky. 6,920 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 He’s growing in confidence, that much is clear. He took the ball past players and looked more assured on the ball than he has done. People were getting antsy about him passing backwards at times, but give me that over losing the ball any time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,548 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Played well the last two games. Still wouldn’t start him on Sunday though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outwith the scum we won't come up against a better side at home than Legia and Barisic proved for 60 minutes he can play well. Was not a shitebag or hiding. At around 2pm today you’ll find that this is not the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he would be ready for them yet. Flanagan has zero fear of them so will probably be the first option on Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DinViesel 399 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Hes had a good couple of games. Playing with a wee bit more confidence. Yet our own fans still continue to give him shit on instagram and twitter. Time to get off his fucking back and give him a bit of support. We have a Croatian international playing for us and folk are crying out hes not good enough. Of course he is good enough for fucking Scotland, knocking a guy even when he plays well will do absolutely nothing for his confidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
